SP Luthier Notes: Fret Dress and Setup

From Taylor Guitars

Like the 200 Series, the sapele 100 Series incorporates laminate back and sides, which offer greater resilience to fluctuating climate conditions, and a slightly narrower 1 11/16-inch neck to keep small hands comfortable. It’s one of the best full-size guitars you’ll find for the money, especially with the availability of Taylor’s ES-T® pickup. It makes a viable performance tool, a great second guitar for an alternate tuning, or a guitar to keep out around the house.
